Barca to make long-awaited Camp Nou return on November 22
Barcelona will finally return to their reconstructed Camp Nou stadium against Athletic Bilbao on November 22 in LaLiga, the club said Monday, after more than two years in exile.
Since the stadium closed at the end of the 2022/23 season, the Catalan giants have been forced to play elsewhere, mainly at the Olympic Stadium on the city’s Montjuic hill.
A series of delays means Camp Nou is reopening a year after it was originally slated to, following a 1.5 billion euro ($1.75 billion) transformation beset by construction chaos.
Barcelona will open the stadium with a temporary capacity of 45,401 spectators, with space for 105,000 when the top tier is completed.
